We Are Flames Which Pour Out of the Earth

Edvard Munch

I am walking along a narrow path.
A steep precipice on one side, it is
a deep bottomless in depth
a depth bottomlessly deep Across on the
other side are meadows,
mountains, houses, people. I
am walking and staggering along the precipice.
I am in the act of danger of falling down, but
I throw myself toward the meadow,
the houses, mountains, people. I
whirl about in the vibrant life—
but I must return to the path along the
precipice. That is my way, which I
must walk. I am careful lest I
fall. Once again in toward life and people.
But I must return to the path along
the precipice. Because it is my path,
until I plunge into the deep.
